Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit
Collabora
Productivity a subsidiary of Collabora focusing on LibreOffice support and
services for whom I work.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.
Failing that, there are all manner of interesting things to read on
the LibreOffice Planet news
feed.

- Up early, Owen explained .Xdefaults to me,
apparently we set some X resources now so, we don't use
the defaults at all; apparently using .Xresources instead
is the right way to go.
- Brian posted his nice patch for knocking 15%
off of Nautilus startup time (sillies in) gnome-vfs.
Amazing that an essentially 2 line patch can have such a
nice effect.
- Discovered that Bastien had started work for
Red Hat - good stuff. Bill Haneman posted an 'entirely Blue'
theme - for testing a11y, you may wish to refresh your
memory of keybindings before running it.
- Stopped OO.o crashing during the showing of it's
pathalogical failure dialog; hmm, much more useful.
- Found that 'xwd' sucks for sets of multi-depth
windows on a display; but 'import' works nicely.
- J. home, went for a run - very aching ankles
though, more warming up required.
My content in this blog and associated images / data under

created by me and (unless obviously labelled otherwise) are licensed under

themselves, in context, in the battle for ideas, and I love fixes /
improvements / corrections by private mail.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Collabora, SUSE,
Novell, The Document Foundation, Spaghetti Hurlers (International),
or anyone else.
It's also important to realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences
or fun.
